"Now, would you like to know who it is

"Oh, yes" answered the girl, up.rrnius

THE MESSAGE.

AESSAOEs
There is one decided merit in the Presi-
dents message, and very unusual one, too.
1t is reasonably short. The people of this
busy country are tired of long messages.
They don't read them, and, fortunately, no.
body has yet discovered that any harm has
come from their not reading them.
The message is devoted entirely to a dis
cussion of the traif question. The President
points out that the amount of money annual
ly exacted through the operation of present
laws from the industries and necessities of
the people largely exceeds the sums neees-
sary to meet the expenses of the government.
He calls the surplus ''indefensible extortion
and culpable betrayal of American fairness
and justice" and says: This wrong inflicted
upon those who bear the burden of national
taxation, like other wrongs, multiplies q
brood of evil consequences. The public
treasury, which should only exist as con-
duit conveying the peoples tribute to its
legitimate objects of expenditure, becomes a
boarding place for money needlessly with
drawn from trade and the peoples use, thus
crippling our national energies, suspeRding
our country's development, preventing in
vestment in productive enterprise, threaten
ing financial disturbance and inviting
schemes of public plunder.
He considers various remedies for this con-
dition of affairs which have been proposed,
and then declares that our present tariff
laws, ''the vicious, inequitable and illogical
force of unnecessary taxation," ought to be
at once revised and amended. And what he
would have done is perhaps as well set forth
in the following passage as in any other: It
is not proposed to entirely relieve the coun-
try of this taxation. 1t must be extensively
continued as a source of the governments in
come; and in q readjustment of our tariff
the interests of American labor engaged in
should be carefully considered
as well as the preservation of our manufac-
lures. 1t may be called protection, or by
any name, but relief from the hardships and
danger of our present tariff laws should be
devised with especial precaution against i'm
periling the existence of our manufacturing
But this existence should not
mean a condition which, without regard to
the public welfare or national exigency,
must always insure the realization of im-
mense profit instead of moderately profitable
The message will strike most readers as an
able and honest discussion of very impor-
tant and complicated matter. But it will not
please either the free traders OF the protec-
tionists.

A Very CoRadins Hostess.


A gentleman who was invited out to dine
at Delaware avenue residence lately OBJ
served that the chandelier over the dining
room table was of peculiar construction, SO
that there was light over the head of each
guest. The globes were of various ce1ors,
some amber, some red and some blue.
fWhat is the object of having the globes of
different colorsf" the guest asked of his
hostess. "Why, you see," said she, "when
one gives dinner or tea one must invite
some people whom one perfectly hates.
Now last Tuesday gave supper, and
had to invite two women whom I despised.
But had to invite them or some of the
young men wanted wouldn't come. I had
my revenge on nay fair enemies, however.
placed each of these two women under one
of those pale blue lights at the table. They're
usually considered beautiful women. but
under that light they had the most CHASTITY
look you ever saw. They were perfect
scarecrows. They seemed to have aged 20
years the minute that they sat down. The
men noticed it, of course, but they did not
divine what caused it. They were quite
taken aback and awfully glum at first. But
finally one of them turned with sigh and
began talking to real homely little thing
that was sitting under ruby-colored light.
Why, she was perfectly charming under it.
So you see that when 1 want people to
look perfectly hideous 1 put them un-
der the blue lights. It kills everything. 4"
The gentleman looked up. He was under a
blue light.

Beld Robbery in a Drawing Room
IEroarl the WasIiro-tnr, Ca1,itaI


Young ladies in society sometimes do
queer things, but seldom does one venture
on such a remarkably bold line of action
as one young person did in this city
while at dinner party not many moons
ago.
During lu11 in the conversation she quietly
remarked to the young gentleman who took
her in to dinner:
'Let me see your pocketbook." Not
knowing what to make of such peculiar
request, the young man quietly produced.
his pooketbook and handed it to her. She
took it, calmly opened it, and took out a roll
of bills amounting to 5000, all the money it
contained.
Then saying to her victim, 'I will buy
me q ring tomorrow" she as calmly
handed back the empty leather case to
him and put the money in her own pocket.
The man preferred to lose the money rather
than to press his claim for it upon her
relatives, and submitted to what was simply
a piece of barefaced robbery. But he
won't escort that young woman to another
dinner table, even if he lives to be as old
as George Washington's favoIite body SER
want.

published a report in which Mr.. Blanford,
head of the department, discusses the theory
first started during the Madras famine ten
years ago) that famines tend to recur in
southern India at periods when the SUMS
spots are at the minimum of size and fre-
quency. Mr.. Blanford comes to the conelu-
sion that there are no sufficient condolences
to support this theory. Nevertheless, he
says, droughts of more or less severity do
visit parts of India not liable to the influence
of cyclonic disturbances at intervals of ten or
eleven years and the reason cannot be conjec-
tured satisfactorily.
The London Times reports the beginning
of an interesting experiment in sumptuary
legislation. The six powers bordering on the
North Sea-Great Britain, France, Belgium,
Holland, Germany and Denmark-have en-
tered into an agreement to attempt by con-
current legislation and police action to protect
the North Sea fishermen against their great
est enemy. Each for itself engages to forbid
its fishermen to buy spirits or to barter their
fish, nets or other gear for them; to forbid
the sale of spirits to any fisherman; to keep

1t is pleasant to see renewal of the effort
to lessen the expense of printing private bills
in congress. Few people, even those who
follow the daily congressional reports, realize
how heavy this expense is. Of the more than
fifteen thousand bills introduced in the last
congress fully three-fourths were of private
nature All of them were printed, but only
about sixteen hundred became laws. The
money spent in printing whatever portion of
the bills was of private nature was simply
wasted. The printed bills which failed to
pass went to the junk dealer and it is even
said that the government has failed to receive
any money for them as waste paper.

All the Solomons are not dead yet. In a
county court in England recently there was
a trial to determine the ownership of dog.
The judge couldn't make out from the evil
dence which claimant was the real owner,
SO he made one stand on each side while an
officer held the dog in the middle of the
room. Then he told them both to whistle
and the officer to release the dog at the same
moment When this was done the dog bolted
through the open door. "Call the next case,'
was all the comment the judge made, al

"Go on, then! But keep thou on that side,
and I will on this" And SO, side by side,
listening, watching, distrustful of all things,
but mainly of each other, they stole back and
up into those shadows from which they might,
like evil spirits, have been pt tically evoked.
A half hour passed, in rhich the east
frightened, flashed and aga--i melted into
gold. And then the sun came up haughtily,
and fog that had stolen across the summit
in the night arose and fled up the mountain
side, tearing its white robes in its guilty haste,
and leaving them futtering from tree and
crag and scar. A thousand tiny blades, nest
ling in the crevices of rocks, nurtured in
storms and rocked by the trade winds,
stretched their wan and feeble arms toward
Him; but Concho the strong, Concho the
brave, Concho the light hearted spake not
nor stirred.
